1. Mendelbahn
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 143 reviews
64% inclination, so you hope the technology is dependable. And to your relief: the design and construction comes from Swiss engineer, Emil Strub. Opened in 1903, the Mendelbahn is regarded as the first electric powered cable car in Tyrol and is the steepest and longest continous cable car in Europe. A trip up the Mendel mountain is already an adventure in itself. And then, there's the impressive Panorama of the Etsch river valley and the South Tyrolean Unterland!Technical data: course lenght: 2,37 kilometers, travel time: 12 minutes, altitude variance: 850 meters.

If you are anywhere near the Mendel Pass, you should really take a bit of time to experience this attraction. The ride takes you to St. Anton, near Caldaro, and back again (or visa-versa). The views are stunning as you traverse the face of this very steep mountain. The tickets are moderately priced and there are eating facilities at both ends of the trip, which takes about 15-20 minutes.
Tip: The best times to visit are the shoulder seasons (May-June and September) when the crowds of tourists have thinned-out. Check for times of operation, as these can be affected by weather.
2. Kalterer See

Deep, blue water is always extolled. But the Kalterer Lake is green. The landscape around the lake is green. The air reflects tones of green. Every shade of green, forest green, vine green, field green, reed green... " and there it lies, a mirror of green". A. Komarek Mediterranean flair at LIDO, a new swimming facility with an architectural style that no one would have ever imagined. Rowing boats, sailing boats, paddle boats and surf boards glide by. Otherwise, it is peaceful; except, for the laugh of children, who are in paradise. It's beautiful in the lake, on the lake and all around the lake.

My family and relatives took the winery tour. We enjoyed the peek behind the scenes, and saw part of the wine-making process in action. Our guide was friendly and enthusiastic. Afterwards we got to sample several of the wines, both as part of our tour and then additional wines in the sales room. They were uniformly very good. We bought several bottles to take with us on the rest of our tour of Italy. When we were leaving, we got to meet Count Michael Goëss-Enzenberg. He was charming and debonair.

We spent a few hours here, a very nice collection of all things related to Tyrolean wine growing. Including a huge antique press. Well worth the 5 Euro entry fee. Outside there are some different wine variations growing in a space overlooking Caldara lake. Have a look!!

In un fresco boschetto 24 percorsi "aerei" di misure e difficoltà crescenti, dove con casco e imbragatura tutti (dopo una breve spiegazione sulla sicurezza) possono cimentarsi in arrampicate, equilibrismi e discese con carrucola. Per almeno due ore il divertimento è garantito in sicurezza .

Die Kirche Maria Himmelfahrt (Chiesa S. Maria Assunta) in Kaltern liegt direkt am Hauptplatz neben dem Rathaus. Der jetzige Bau wurde Ende des 18. Jahrhunderts im spätbarocken Stil erbaut. Eine wirklich schöne Kirche ein Besuch lohnt sich.

Sulla strada del vino in località Caldaro, con un gruppo organizzato siamo stati in questa cantina di quasi 100 anni. Accompagnati da personale ben preparato, abbiamo visitato la cantina in tutte le sue parti. Ovviamente la parte più suggestiva è stata quella della barricaia, sempre molto affascinante. Abbiamo terminato la visita con una grande degustazione dei loro prodotti. Su tutti ho preferito il pinot nero, di cui ho fatto una buona scorta.
Merita la visita.
